What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

What was your embarrassing moment in front of your father-in-law as an Indian daughter-in-law?

HELLO

After a few moments he returns.

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

What did Rama tell Sita about Kaliyug?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
